`dt3k_ns_to_timer()` determines the prescaler and divisor to use to produce a desired timing period. It is influenced by a rounding mode and can round the divisor up, down, or to the nearest value. However, the code for rounding up currently does the same as rounding down! Fix ir by using the `DIV_ROUND_UP()` macro to calculate the divisor when rounding up. Also, change the types of the `divider`, `base` and `prescale` variables from `int` to `unsigned int` to avoid mixing signed and unsigned types in the calculations. Also fix a typo in a nearby comment: "improvment" => "improvement".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
